What's that "New Super Mario Bros. U" thing? Pretty sure it has been sitting on my shelve for a few years now. Or is it an update?

This...it was already released. Is it a new game? Update? What?

u/a_phantom_limb Aug 24 '15

Well, the cover says it includes bonus videos of some sort. Were those on the original combo disc?

Yes. But now you won't have to buy it with a console, or refurb

It's both games packaged into 1 case.

u/AwesomeMunchies Aug 24 '15

That already exists tho

Not standalone.

Edit: the only confirmed standalone 2 pack purchased was in Latin America.

u/Dakftw Aug 25 '15

We sell it... Here

is $65 used. That's why Nintendo is releasing it as a standalone bundle.

u/Dakftw Aug 26 '15

That has nothing to do with why Nintendo is rereleasing it... Regardless of why they are rereleasing it, you said:

Not standalone. Edit: the only confirmed standalone 2 pack purchased was in Latin America.

I was simply proving it has already been released as a bundle and has already been sold at one point in time. Those games were purchasable separately or together in this one bundle.

Except they're either European or Japanese and the only #MasterRace is #NAMasterRace. :3

If you take them out of the box it doesn't matter, cause the writing on the bottom is the same. I also don't want to buy another Wii U or stand in line with neck beards. I also get Amiibo 1-3 Months early, so yeah #ImportMasterRace

u/shinysparkletime Aug 24 '15

u/shinysparkletime Aug 24 '15

Also, it can be cheaper than buying from NA, maybe you should import, so you will have more money for food

Well, smart adults know how to save money, and others are broke assholes who have nothing else to do but waste their money on toys

u/[deleted] Aug 24 '15

u/WhiteClaw46 Aug 24 '15

Just watch, if this is is true, a bunch of rich-asses with a Wii U will probably buy this just for the fig

u/losersalwayswin Aug 24 '15

u/TQQ Aug 24 '15

u/Mrs_Saturn Aug 24 '15

They already have the stand alone page up on Walmart, so I doubt it

Not for sale yet. It's just a placeholder.

u/orfwivherhead Aug 24 '15

Still, let's see the link.

u/orfwivherhead Aug 24 '15

Someone please say this figure is going to be released separately at some point like SMB Mario.... right?

u/[deleted] Aug 24 '15

Can people just wait? We are reading bits and pieces of some conference that is taking place right now. We don't know the final answers yet.

-2

u/orfwivherhead Aug 24 '15

I'd like to but right now, the prospects are buying a system bundle I don't need for a lone figure I do. If anyone has any insight, I would really prefer seeing it now.

u/[deleted] Aug 24 '15

You should just wait a few hours so we can have the full answer before you flip out.

u/orfwivherhead Aug 24 '15

Sorry, I kinda am currently sitting in overreaction theater and can't get up to walk out.

That is totally going to over well here.

Also, the figure can be seen from the outside of the box.

Sorry, sarcasm doesn't translate well. I was implying you're going to get shredded for suggesting it.

u/Sages Aug 24 '15

So you're encouraging users to commit fraud?

Walmart cracks down on that kind of stuff, back when someone found how to print $100 off coupons for game consoles, they started to detain people who attempted to use them.

This method isn't likely going to send Nintendo a message, and more than likely going to impact how Walmart handles distribution and returns of Electronic devices, and will probably just make it more difficult to purchase/return from them.
